This is a List of clubs in the Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar , including all clubs and their final placings from the inaugural season 1978–79, then under the name of Amateur-Oberliga Südwest , to the current one. The league, is the highest football league in the states of Rhineland-Palatinate (German: Rheinland-Pfalz ) and Saarland . It is one of fourteen Oberligas in German football, the fifth tier of the German football league system . Until the introduction of the 3. Liga in 2008 it was the fourth tier of the league system, until the introduction of the Regionalligas in 1994 the third tier.
Overview
The league was formed in 1978 to replace the three regional amateur leagues that existed in its place until then as the third tier in Rhineland-Platinate and Saarland. Originally it carried the name Amateur-Oberliga Südwest . In 1994, when the Regionalliga Süd was formed, the league changed its official name once more to Oberliga Südwest , and became a tier four league. In 2012, the Regionalliga Süd was replaced by the Regionalliga Südwest and the league was renamed Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar to avoid confusion, but little else changed for the Oberliga otherwise.

The league went through the following timeline of name changes, format and position in the league system:
